On August 17-20, the Neighborhood Cinema Festival in Uzhhorod will screen Polish films.

The festival program includes “Vika!” – a film by Agnieszka Zwiefka. Vika, a 84-year-old, shines as bright as the star of Warsaw nightclubs she is. A charismatic and electrifying woman whose energy is the envy of young people, she refuses to grow old. Vika had worked as a director of a youth detention center, to then start her DJ career. Her unconventional bearing inspires other elderly people to celebrate life and live it to the fullest.
